Safety, trust & environment

I have 2yrs of experience with handling keys to clients houses. Both keys I keep on my person and in lock boxes. I’ve interacted with a variety of locks, too. I always double check locks after each visit. I always get a visual of every pet in the household before leaving each of my visits. I make sure to check rooms accessible to pets for any accidents. I also make sure pets have adequate water before leaving.

Information Zayn S. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preferences, but I would like to know any important information about their habits and tendencies. If they take medicine, I need detailed instructions. I am okay with very detailed instructions to follow for a pet’s needs. I love detailed instructions!

A typical day

I like to bring animals to places I know well and don't have too many people. I love to walk on trails and in parks. Cats get royalty treatment with lots of pets and even a brushing! Pets usually get a treat after each visit with me!

Pet care experience

I have 2yrs experience working with a dog walking/pet sitting business. Unfortunately I had to stop because I moved too far away from my clients (I miss them so much). I require a meet & greet before taking care of any pets! I require a photo of your house front if we meet at your residence (for safety purposes). I’m looking to start taking care of some pets again! •I’m comfortable administering medications to pets. •I’m comfortable performing tasks to maximize the comfort and happiness of your pets (ex: opening or closing the blinds, adding wood pellets to your pellet stove, turning on a bird video for them, bringing trash out, etc.). • I’m comfortable looking after “exotic” pets. I have experience taking care of leopard geckos, bearded dragons, birds, and tortoises. • I’m NOT comfortable walking leash reactive dogs, unless you know of a more private area to walk them, or dogs that need to be off-leash on walks. I've had a life-long responsibility of taking care of all sorts of pets throughout the years in my household. Anything from chickens to cats to dogs to rats...Animals are what make me happiest and I'd to have the pleasure of getting to meet your furry friend and bring a little more joy to their day!

Another great booking. We were able to enjoy a whole week away with no worries that our boys were being well cared for.

As a former teacher, I leave detailed notes and Zayn carefully read, digested, and followed them. She even sent pix we requested as a favor! Our dog was very calm and happy when we returned after 3 days. We appreciated her attention to detail!
